Rather than thinking of models as skinny mean girls, we should recognise how badly they are treated within their own industryI have been reading a lot recently about how models are treated really badly. Rather like how we sorted out that fashion magazines were no longer going to feature skinny models. It’s almost like the fashion industry … just doesn’t care? And extreme thinness is still equated with the ultimate aspiration in too many people’s minds, especially in the fashion industry. The only thing we, the public, can do about it is not to buy from labels that use extremely skinny models in their adverts and shows, and write to them to tell them this.
